Our Museum's History

We are the first independent Jewish museum in Germany, opened on November 9, 1988 by Federal Chancellor Helmut Kohl on occasion of the 50th anniversary of the November Pogrome. In 1992 we opened our second location Museum Judengasse. Learn more about our museum's history and the history of our Rothschild Palais.

Library

Our museum library is a library specialised in Jewish history, religion and culture. As a non-lending library, we welcome all who are interested in visiting us during the Jewish Museum opening hours. Access to the library is currently limited due to renovation and therefore only possible by advance appointment.
